Perhaps you should suggest it as a new smiley!!
I've been campaigning for a smiley for some time now. Still haven't got one!!

cheer up, have a towel
maybe I could campaign, but it seems a lot of effort for one little picture! Or I could just pretend there is one. I mean, everyone knows what I mean if I went , or , or , so why do we need the little pic to go with it? Well it makes me feel better NEway!

very unoriginal, I'm afraid. It's a quote from that wholely remarkable book, 'the hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy':
'Share and Enjoy' is company motto of the hugely successful Sirius Cybernetics Corporation Complaints division, which now covers the major land masses of three medium sized planets, and is the only part of the Corporation to show a consistent profit in recent years. It stands, or stood, in three mile high illuminated letters near the Complaints Dept. spaceport. Unfortunately, it's weight was such that shortly after it was erected, the ground beneath the letters caved in and they dropped for nearly half their length through the underground offices of many talented young complaints executives, now deceased.
The protruding upper halves of the letters now appear in the local language to read 'go stick your head in a pig' and are no longer illuminated, except at times of special celebration.
So now you know!

Well I'd better not give to much away , other than to say that a lot of the references on this site will make much more sense if you've read the book..... including my previous reference to towels (check out A138232 for more)

*stops rushing around, realises someone said something two hours ago, reads*
*looks confused*
eh? who said that? I didn't hear NE1 say that. Cheer up . Stay! Have a cup of and some if it helps.
don't mind me though, i'll be back soon...
*looks around frantically, realises he's got 10 hours to pack the entire contents of his life into small cardboard boxes, clean a pile of dirty dishes, sort his laundry out, copy up some lecture notes, and get some sleep*
let's hear it for disorganisation!

oh, sorry, I didn't explain b4. I'm in Cambridge at the mo (at uni - see my page), but I'm going back home tomorrow (or should that be later today?), so I have to pack up the entire contents of my uni room 2nite, and it's already past 2am!
D'oh!
*sits down for a break*
...
*remembers what the time is*
oh well, back to work...

*stares bleary-eyed at screen*
sorry, that should really be 'everything I brought up with me in Oct'. The rooms are used for conference visitors over the vacations (boo), so I have to move out. NEway, everything but the computer and the kettle is stacked in a big wobbly pile in the middle of the room now (packed in boxes that is, I didn't just spend 5 hrs building castles!).
It's all my own fault really - I just have to leave these things to the last minute.
Time for some sleep now though....

*wonders whether any of that was coherent due to now having been awake for 23 hours, and not having eaten anything for the last 5*
*wonders whether anyone is really interested in these ramblings*
